Pirate Nation

1/ Let's talk today about gaming incentives

One of the cool onchain games I've played recently /piratenation 

Launched last year with an invitation-only system, and now rolled out to the public with a genius point system !

Let's set sail and delve into their strategy 🧵🏴‍☠️

4/ Not only that, they launched a Referral Program with BOOTY Points

Players receive unique codes to share; leveling up in the game provides more codes 

This sparked even more FOMO and skyrocketed user engagement, driving the quest for more codes and points. Great move! 👏

5/ After 2 months of Season 1, June 10th ended with the (hinted) $PIRATE  airdrop, 

S1's impressive stats:💣☠️
• 1.4M peak transactions daily
• 223 ETH accumulated in total volume
• 93M $PIRATE distributed across 17,400 wallets

6/ S1 was a hit, showing that points boosted user engagement🌋

Post TGE, they achieved the impossible: maintaining NFT + Airdrop ($PIRATE) value higher than pre-airdrop launch 💥

Proving points and TGE can coexist with 100% effective strategy🤝

7/ Hence, S2 launches with more BOOTY points to boost daily engagement and referrals

They added new features and expanded rewards, boosting demand for $PIRATE through stake pools and a crucial role in game activities

8/ My journey as a pirate is just starting

Any advice on how to rack up more BOOTY or how to master the game?

What are some guides people can use to get started?

Additionally, know that you can deploy points or referral systems like Pirate Nation's using /fuul. Top projects use Fuul to go to market fast while preventing sybil activity

DCs always open

2/ /piratenation is a Web3 game that surpasses typical RPGs 🎮

Everything, from mechanics to assets, operates on its own blockchain (Apex), created by Proof Of Play 🔗

Interestingly, there is no inflation; all assets are NFTs that can be traded or redeemed on its L3

Building /stokefire and poolfish.xyz (/poolfish). A calculator for LP providers. Built Potion solo to $6k+ MRR and sold for $300k.

I haven't studied them tbh! Just the incentive piece

Interesting story. Thanks for sharing.

Do you think their tokenomics are sustainable?

love pirate nation. curious how much of the incentive piece led to good price action post TGE? 
Imo good game play + sticky community helped.
